New TUG Website Goes Online

Visit http://www.nrel.gov/vehiclesandfuels/ngvtf/tug.html for the new TUG website, hosted by DOE’s National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL). The web page tells about the Natural Gas Transit Users Group (TUG) and summarizes the benefits of natural gas buses. More importantly, it provides a portal to a members-only site which includes the proceedings and presentations from the 2005 TUG meeting hosted by the Gwinnett County, GA DOT, the 2004 TUG meeting in Anaheim, CA and the 2003 TUG meeting in Las Vegas.

For a username and password (only for TUG members) which will allow you to access the TUG members-only site (http://www.nrel.gov/extranet/vehiclesandfuels/tug/), contact Hank Seiff at 703-534-6151 or hseiff@cleanvehicle.org.
